A cool application! in All Things Macintosh http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21530419 en Sun, 29 Nov 2009 19:19:24 EDT Sun, 29 Nov 2009 19:19:24 EDT Re: A cool application! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21551880 JerseyDevil : I have to say I agree.

It works so and was fun to play with but not optimal for regular use.

The problem I find is that having a macbook at least you are to close to the camera to make the movements in comfortable manner.

Might be best for those with iMacs and PowerMacs.

They've developed some other cool ones. I don't know why anyone thinks this is anything more than a toy, because it really has absolutely no real-world function at the moment.

I had a chance to play around with it, and it was fun, but also quite difficult to get used to. The guy controlling it in the video obviously had some practice. It was very hard to "swipe" like in the video.

I've uploaded my own video of my experience of using it. It shows how much i suck compared to the other guy. lol

I wasn't able to use it like the demo though. I found it easier to scroll by moving my head from side to side. Still, it's too much work, and I won't be using it.

Edit: Bonus points for not making my MBP sound like a jet-engine. That really surprised me.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21531422 Fri, 05 Dec 2008 08:56:11 EDT Re: A cool application! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21530841 WALL_E : I saw this on Digg a couple days ago and I have been playing around with it since.

After a while you're able to tweak your movements so the software responds more like you would expect, but it's still fairly unusable.

However, combined with proximity sensors in an LCD (rather than relying solely on video) would probably make it *much* better, as the biggest problem with the currently implementation is that it detects unwanted background movements and interprets it as deliberate interaction with the software.

do you think this will become the next new thing?
I really hope not.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21530633 Fri, 05 Dec 2008 00:41:12 EDT A cool application! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21530419 shamguy4 : I just downloaded this application and is pretty cool!!

do you think this will become the next new thing? perhaps they could implement the whole computer to work with it somehow...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21530419 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 23:54:03 EDT
